This is best shot (so I think) from a series of photos that I took of my little guys playing king of the hill on the kitty condo a few days ago. I love it when the cats sumo. It's mostly harmless. Mostly. But I almost never have a camera around. It usually happens so fast that If I don't have a camera in my hands when the action goes down, I miss it.
But not this time. This time I had the camera close at hand when Mak & Fil dueled it out for supremacy on the condo. It's hard to capture cats in the middle of doing much of anything but sleeping, so I really feel lucky to have captured this action on "film".
It's not a great shot, technically speaking. I was too lazy to get of my ass and move from the couch where I was sitting to take better advantage of the light coming from the sliding glass doors. And the composition leaves a lot to be desired, but the action, well, the action doesn't get much better. If anyone ever doubts the ferocity of the Samoan Fighting Kittens, all I have to do is bust out this photo for them to behold.
